I've been reading tons of threads on the White House beer being made and all the negative comments about the extracts used. I don't understand what the big deal is. I've only been brewing for about a year and half now and this weekend will be around my 15th batch of beer. I started out with a mr beer kit my brothers bought me for a wedding gift. Like most beginners I started out with all extract and I have now done 2, 5 gallon AG batches but really I mostly just partial mash now. Honestly some of the best beer i've made was without following a real recipe and just trying a few different base malts, specialty grains and hops with some LME. I read alot of these "Pros" downing guys with extract recipes and it reminds me when I used to Snowboard and all the skiers hated snowboarders and vice versa. I think getting my brothers together with me and making a batch, all while drinking and having a good time is what really makes homebrewing a wonderful thing. Cheers
